About this title

Synopsis

Chicas de Riad se public� en L�bano en 2005, tras ser prohibido en Arabia Saud�, el pa�s natal de la autora. En pocos meses se vendieron m�s de cien mil ejemplares y se desat� un acalorado debate entre los pol�ticos, intelectuales y cr�ticos del mundo �rabe. Al mismo tiempo, la novela entr� en el mercado negro a un precio diez veces superior al de las librer�as y despert� un gran inter�s internacional, vendi�ndose a once pa�ses.

En su debut literario, Rajaa Alsanea habla de aquello sobre lo que en su entorno deber�a guardarse silencio: cuatro chicas j�venes que ans�an vivir y amar y que no pueden hacerlo porque la tradici�n no prev� felicidad alguna para la mujer. A pesar de ello, Sadim, Kamra, Michelle y Lamis intentan alcanzarla, cada una a su modo, y el resultado es una tragicomedia que emociona, conmueve y hechiza.

Chicas de Riad nos acerca a las cuatro protagonistas en toda su dimensi�n: sus experiencias amorosas, su carrera profesional y sus enfrentamientos con unas costumbres demasiado r�gidas. Una original e inolvidable visi�n de las complejas vidas de una cultura y un mundo completamente distintos de los nuestros.
